Algkena

I have been working as a teacher in a Greek school for five years, gaining valuable experience in education and student support. Alongside this, I will be working in schools across West London as a Teaching Assistant, helping students with a variety of subjects based on their individual needs. I also have extensive experience in tutoring both face-to-face and online, specializing in Greek language and Psychology. I am passionate about creating engaging and supportive lessons, ensuring that each student receives personalized guidance to match their learning style.

I am currently completing my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, which has given me a deeper understanding of how students think, learn, and process information. This knowledge allows me to adapt my teaching approach, making lessons more effective, interactive, and confidence-boosting. My experience has taught me the importance of patience, encouragement, and individualized support, especially when working with students who face learning challenges. One of my most rewarding teaching experiences was helping a student with autism who struggled with reading and completing homework independently. Through structured yet flexible learning strategies, such as visual aids, interactive techniques, and breaking tasks into smaller steps, I helped him build confidence. Over time, he began reading fluently and gained independence in his homework, which was a huge milestone for him. This experience reinforced my belief that with the right guidance, every student can overcome challenges and thrive.

I am passionate about making learning an enjoyable and empowering experience. Whether teaching Greek, Psychology, or general primary school subjects, I strive to create a positive, motivating, and inclusive learning environment where students feel confident and supported in their academic journey.

Tutoring Experience

I have five years of experience teaching in a Greek school, where I developed engaging lesson plans to help students improve their reading, writing, and speaking skills. My role involved providing personalized support to students of different ages and levels, ensuring they built confidence in their learning. Currently, I work as a Teaching Assistant in schools across West London, supporting primary school students in various subjects. I assist with classroom activities, homework, and one-on-one support, adapting lessons to suit individual needs while fostering a positive and engaging learning environment. In addition to classroom teaching, I have extensive experience as a private tutor, both face-to-face and online, specializing in Greek language and Psychology. I design tailored lessons to match each student’s learning style, helping them develop strong foundations, improve confidence, and achieve their academic goals.

Tutoring Approach

My teaching approach is student-centered, adaptable, and engaging, ensuring that each lesson is tailored to the student’s unique learning style and needs. I focus on creating a supportive and interactive environment, where students feel comfortable asking questions and actively participating in their learning. Whether teaching Greek, Psychology, or primary school subjects, I use a combination of structured lessons, interactive exercises, and real-world examples to make learning more practical and enjoyable.

For Greek language, I emphasize real-life communication, integrating speaking, reading, writing, and listening to help students build confidence and fluency. I incorporate cultural elements to make learning more immersive and meaningful. When teaching Psychology, I break down complex theories into simple, relatable concepts, encouraging critical thinking and discussion to help students understand and apply what they learn.

I believe in flexibility and personalization, adapting my methods based on the student’s strengths, challenges, and goals. My approach includes structured study plans, step-by-step guidance, and interactive learning tools, ensuring students stay motivated and progress at a comfortable pace. My ultimate goal is to make learning a positive and empowering experience, helping students build confidence, develop new skills, and enjoy their academic journey.
